4x + 6 = -26
I'm not sure if your supposed to solve, but I will anyways :)
4x + 6 = -26
     -6     -6
4x = -32
x = -8
Hope this helps!

Ok, from your picture, it looks like you have a square and a right triangle next to each other
one of the definition of a square is that all 4 sides are equal, and its given to you that the square has a side length of 3
since the triangle shares a side with the square, that means that shared side has a length of 3
ok, now how about determining the unknown length x
well the base has a length of 5, but you also know that when you add the length of the square side plus x, you should get 5
3+x = 5
and you can solve for x  (subtract 3 from both sides)
x=2
now how about determining side length y
well since you know this is a right triangle, you can apply pythagorean theorem

where C is the hypothenuse of the triangle, or the longest side
when you substitute the known values (3 and x)
you get 
3^2 + x^2 = y^2
since you already know x=2
3^2 +2^2 = y^2
and you can solve for y
any questions?
 
        
        
        
X + y = 3500 -------------- (1)
x - y = 2342 --------------- (2)
(1) + (2):
2x = 5842
x = 2921 -------------- Sub into (1)
x+ y = 3500
2921 + y = 3500
y = 3500 - 2921
y = 579
----------------------------------------------
Answer: x = 2921, y = 579
----------------------------------------------
